Wearing jewellery in the ocean – caring for your jewellery

As a golden rule you should always avoid wearing jewellery on the beach during the day as sun lotion and salt water can negatively affect your jewellery.

Sun lotion can create a chemical reaction with the metal your jewellery is made from and can result in oxidation if the item of jewellery is silver. Sun lotion isn’t corrosive, so there shouldn’t be any long-term damage to your jewellery – a quick clean and rub with a polishing cloth should bring your jewellery back to its former glory.

Sand and saltwater are both abrasive and can scratch your jewellery so be extra careful – especially with gemstone jewellery.

When can I wear my jewellery to the beach?

Save your jewellery for evening drinks on the beach or for when you are unlikely to be using the swimming pools or oceans to keep your jewellery looking its best while on holiday.
